The house can be rented, but the life is your own. Therefore, most people will carefully decorate their own small home after living alone.
Many people choose to buy furniture online in the process of dressing up, so that they can not only stay at home, but also save a lot of money. However, recently, a large number of netizens broke the news that the furniture they bought online has been delayed......
What's going on? Let's take a look with the know-it-all.
Salsa sells furniture online
13 customers gave S$15,536 but did not receive the goods
Sa Sa is the owner of two private limited companies, which are mainly engaged in the business of selling furniture online.
Sasha herself, on the other hand, sells the company's furniture on an online shopping platform, and is also responsible for taking orders and handling the company's funds.
During the three months from February to May 31, 2022, there were many customers who purchased cabinets, bed frames, custom mirrors, and tables through shopping platforms......
Most customers choose to transfer money to the company's bank account, but 13 customers chose to transfer their furniture purchases (S$15,536) to Sasa's private bank account.
After these 13 customers gave the money, they began to wait for the furniture they had purchased.
1 month, 2 months, 3 months......
There has been no news of furniture delivery, so they went to a shopping platform to find a store, only to find out that the company run by Sa Sa had closed in October 2022.
$15,000 misappropriated in financial hardship
Now he is being charged in court
In other words, not only will they not receive the furniture they bought online, but they will also not receive the money they spent on the furniture they bought before!
Seeing that their money was wasted, these 13 people were not very comfortable. So they chose to call the police to deal with the matter, and in the end, Sasha was charged in court this year.
Sasha said that she was facing financial difficulties at the time, so she embezzled S$15,000 (about 82,000 yuan), which caused customers to be unable to get the furniture.
In court, Sasha's lawyer said that the carpenter had failed to fulfill his promises, resulting in Sasha's liability as a director of the company, and pleaded with the judge to give her a lenient sentence of two months or two-and-a-half months in prison.
In the end, the judge sentenced her to five months' imprisonment after comprehensive consideration.
Furniture stores sell furniture
After the store received the money, it did not deliver the goods for a long time
In fact, this is not the first case of buying furniture in Singapore and not receiving the goods, there was a similar case two months ago.
When Lili was shopping, she spent more than S$3,000 on three beds at a furniture store. After the purchase, the clerk swore that he would never delay the delivery.
After a period of waiting, Lili finally waited for the store to postpone the delivery. However, the shopkeeper is also a more business-savvy person, and he told Lili that if the mattress is replaced with a Malaysian one, it will be shipped soon.
Lili waited a little anxiously, and agreed without thinking about it. But this mattress in Malaysia has not been shipped, and Lili, whose patience has finally been exhausted, decides to claim compensation from the store.
It turned out that the address of the furniture store had been turned into a virtual office, and the storefronts in several other places were not open. Lili sensed that something was wrong, so she chose to report the case to the police.
